One potential side effect of antipyretics is increased bleeding time, which can occur because they can interfere with the production of thromboxane A2, a substance involved in blood clotting. Other potential side effects can include gastrointestinal upset, kidney damage, and liver damage. Increased fever, heart rate, and blood pressure are not common side effects of antipyretics, but can occur in rare cases.
